Powered by GoogleThe recreational center is part of the most unique park in the Shreveport Public Assembly and Recreation's system. It has two natural water features formed by the nearby Red River that were surely used by ancient indigenous peoples of the region. The center has a playground, tennis courts and somewhat hilly walking path doted with Pecan trees.

Nice facility. They have after school programs and basketball gym. However the park would have been nice if my child didn't find a used condom near the slide.
I love it's right down the street from my house. They have recently updated the facility. They have wonderful summer and after school programs. The park is huge . and a great place to let your kids run off their energy. They also have a tennis court. The woman who runs the children programs is amazing.
Friendly, helpful and environmentally conducive for the Cherokee-Highland Park Association Meeting with Councilman Willie Bradford. Thank you Mamie Hicks Recreation Center staff and Mr. Frances.
